VASCO lends solution to secure e-document viewing

Thursday, April 29, 2010

VASCO Data Security combines the efforts of VACMAN Controller authentication technology with Adobe and LiveCycle Rights Management Enterprise Suite 2 (ES2) and delivers a new solution for secure document viewing over the Internet.

By implementing the one-time-password technology, VASCO DIGIPASS into the authentication for viewing e-documents, users will be able to reduce administrative handling and filing costs as well as strengthen corporate data governance and strategies against data loss.


When a user opens a document, LiveCycle Rights Management ES2 will require a username and OTP to allow access. The user will generate an OTP using his DIGIPASS and enter it in.

LiveCycle Rights Management ES2 gives users the ability to encrypt files and apply policies that help them create a confidential seal on the documents. Additionally this lowers the risk of the wrong person having access to sensitive information. [end]
